Saturday, 25 August 2018 – Travel Day to Raton NM

The view from our RV Park at the top of Raton Pass

Raton Pass is on I-25 and is one of the main routes between Colorado and Texas.  Raton is a beautiful area though not very populated. We decided to stay two nights at Raton Pass Cafe and Campground. We are trying to get back to staying at least two nights at every stop and keep our daily drive less than 200 miles. The park is at the peak of the pass at 7800 feet. After setup we drove into Trinidad Colorado to eat a late lunch at Tequila’s Mexican restaurant. On the way to the restaurant it started raining some and cooled the temperatures from the mid-80’s to the mid-70’s.
